“We can either live in a paranoid politically correct world frantically trying not to offend the Hitlers and Mohammeds, and blaming their victims when they kill, or we can be free men and women who have chosen to take the power to defend our rights into our own hands.

While a thousand organizations use the Holocaust as a platform for speeches about tolerance, Children Of Jewish Holocaust Survivors [Jews Can Shoot] is conducting firearms training… Freedom is not defended with empty idealism easily perverted into appeasement of evil, but with the force of arms.”

All too many of the other great tragedies of history - Stalin's atrocities, the killing fields of Cambodia, the Holocaust, to name but a few - were perpetrated by armed troops against unarmed populations. Many could well have been avoided mitigated, had the perpetrators known their intended victims were equipped with a rifle and twenty bullets apiece... If a few hundred Jewish fighter in the Warsaw Ghetto could hold off the Wehrmacht for almost a month with only a handful weapons, six million Jews armed with rifles could not so easily have been herded into cattle cars.

FBI warns of ‘broad threat’ to New Jersey synagogues, urges caution

by Doris Wise Montrose on November 6, 2022

Caution … and preparedness.

The FBI said that this warning was a “proactive measure” and that it is still investigating the matter.

The FBI has put out a warning for synagogues in the US state of New Jersey, having received information of a “broad threat” to Jewish houses of worship.

“We ask at this time that you take all security precautions to protect your community and facility,” the FBI tweeted.

The FBI added that this warning was a “proactive measure” and that it is still investigating the matter.

The bureau also said that it “takes all threats seriously and we are working with our law enforcement partners actively investigating this threat” and that it is “engaged with our faith based partners in the affected community.”
